The amount of movement, linear momentum, momentum or momentum is a physical quantity derived from a vector type that describes the movement of a body in any mechanical theory. In classical mechanics, the amount of movement is defined as the product of body mass and its velocity at a given time.

p= mv

Where,

m = mass

v = Velocity

Our values are given as,

m = 1800kg

v = 7.5m/s

Replacing we have that,

p = (1800)(7.5)

p = 13500kg\cdot m/s

Therefore the momentum is 13500kg\cdot m/s

Mike's car, which weighs 1,000 kg, is out of gas. Mike is trying to push the car to a gas station, and he makes the car go 0.05
Maru [420]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: F = 50 N

Explanation:

Data

mass = 1000 kg

acceleration = 0.05m/s2

F = ?

Formula

F = m x a

Substitution

F = 1000 kg x 0.05 m/s2 = 50 kgm/s2 = 50 N

Mike is applying a force of 50 N to the car.

In a thermally isolated environment, you add ice at 0°C and steam at 100°C. (a) Determine the amount of steam condensed (in g) a
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

 a) 11.2 g

   b) 3.73 g.

Explanation:

a) If we assume temperature of mixture to be 100°C , heat released by steam will be 11.2 x 540 = 6048 cals and heat gain gained by will be

79 x 80 + 79 x 1 x 100 = 14220 cals . Since former heat is less than later heat ,water will not be warmed up to 100°C. Let equilibrium temperature be t .  

Heat gained by water = 79 x 80 + 79 x 1 x t = 11.2 x 540 + 11.2( 100 - t )

t = 9.4°

amount of steam condensed = 11.2 g.

b) In this case, whole of water will be warmed up to 100°C as steam is much .heat required by water to warm up to boiling point

= 11.2 x 80 + 11.2 x 100 = 2016 cals

amount of steam condensed =  2016 / 540 = 3.73 g .

A 2kg object travels to the right at 5.5 m/s after colliding with a 3kg object, initially at rest, what are the speeds of each o
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Velocity of Object with 2 kg= 3.390 m/s

Velocity of Object with 3 kg= 3.404 m/s

Explanation:

From the picture, it can be seen that object B is initially at rest while object A is travelling at a speed of 5m/s. After the collision, Object A moves at an angle of 65 degrees while object B moves at an angle of 37 degrees.

We also know that momentum of a closed system is conserved.

Initial momentum along the x-axis = 2*5.5 = 11

Initial momentum along y-axis = 0

Final momentum along x-axis= a*Cos(65)*2 +b*Cos(37) *3= 11 (a is the velocity of object A of 2 kg after collision where as b is the velocity of object B of 3 kg after collision. velocity is multiplied by cosines of the angle from x axis to give the horizontal component of the velocities).

Final momentum along y-axis = a*Sin(65)*2 - b*Sin(37)*3 =0 (We can see that vertical components of velocity are opposite in direction to each other)

Solve both the equations simultaneously for a and b.

Sloan [31]

Answer:

Constructive interference

Explanation:

Here, the medium is same, same wavelength, same frequency, same amplitude and same direction of propagation.

Let the intensity of waves be I which is same for both

The formula for the net intensity is

I^{2}=I_{1}^{2}+I_{2}^{2}+2I_{1}I_{2}Cos\phi

where, Ф be the phase difference

So, I_{R}^{2}=I^{2}+I^{2}+2IICos6\pi

Here, IR is maximum so the interference is constructive in nature.
